ALERT DURING THE PANDEMIC
»However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows. (Mark 13:32)
We are seeing many signs of the end times that point to the return of our Lord Jesus, but the exact day, no one knows.
We shouldn’t lower our guard in our spiritual, family, social and financial life. We must be alert.
And since you don’t know when that time will come, be on guard! Stay alert[a]! (Mark 13:32-33 NLT)
Those who are alert are learning something good from this crisis caused by the coronavirus, they continue to have the habits of the successful disciple. They pray, read the Bible, write their devotional, congregate, serve and they are generous.
Alert. Awake. Ready!
Don’t let him find you sleeping when he arrives without warning. 37 I say to you what I say to everyone: Watch for him!” (Mark 13:36-37 NLT)
Think about it:
What positive thing have you learned in this time of pandemic?
What healthy habits have you developed?
Has this crisis brought you closer to your family, or is it destroying your home?
Have you gotten closer to God, or have you moved away from Him?
